Thanks again!! Sorry if it seemed like I was downplaying the amazing work put into the Merrigan piece. I just know it would make some of our soulless black hearted followers writhe in pain listening lol😅. For me though it is one of my absolute favourites. Really amazing work. Again, can’t say enough for all of it. You really pull your heart and soul into all of it and it shows.

This is unbelievable! Thank you so much for showing the technique. My imagination is working overtime.

[@SteamGeezerUK]

Nice job. I do a lot of resin casting and I know how tricky it can be when you have to wait for that perfect moment to carry out a process before the resin goes off too much. I really like the use of the snow flocking - I've never tried that but I certainly will in the future. This came out really well and I'm sure you're justifiably proud of the result.

[@harrigoldsmith8280]

I like it even the sunken bits of snow, it’s like stirred up sand and natural waves also have white stirred up areas under the surface to.

[@RamoArt]

Once you poured the resin onto the plastic it clicked in my head - of course that's how it was done! The snow powder sea foam really sells it. Many people use cotton and I just don't think it looks right. Maybe UV resin could be utilized to add some gravity defying peaks, although I don't know if it will cure once it's been mixed with the opaque powder. Just a thought.

[@marinariquelme3982]

The music is so magical & so beautiful

[@snakemasterthorno]

When i saw this in my playlist my thoughts were "Oh great, another video showing off a bunch of expensive materials witch can even let some one with 2 left hands can create stunning results." But this one was really eye opening to me. You showed a way that is cheaper and just as easy to apply with amazing results. Chapeau!

[@VickiBowers]

Absolutely brilliant! Well thought out and executed, and what a beautiful finished piece👍🏻

[@katekursive1370]

I like that you are flexible in your design and aren't afraid of changing things on the fly or making big decisions. Shows that you are very literate with the medium. I also like to see that you involve your family in your projects. I imagine if my dad did something like this when I was little, I would have loved it!

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Thank you very much! I definitely enjoy the process and like discovering new things that end up working out really well. I suppose along the way you’re going to make a lot of mistakes and it’s all a part of the process. Definitely learned a lot for the next time that I’d do differently. And thanks, I love having my family being a part of this and involving them. I really do my best not to shoo them away when I’m concentrating and get them to help where they can.🙂. Nice to see someone commenting on that.😊

[@silash.5535]

Can't believe how good this turned out! I really thought it would be more complicated. Had in mind you would splash the resin on the rock-base when it's almost dry or something like that, but how you did it is just genius and looks awesome. The snow mixed with the top layer of the wave to create this bubbly, troubled water really just sealed the deal to me.

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Glad to hear, thanks man!🙂

[@CraigPeace]

love the music, very windswept and interesting

[@aaronbono4688]

This is seriously awesome. I got so many great ideas from this build. I love doing the resin water stuff and now you have given me a ton of ideas for projects. Thanks so much!

[@dlynnfrazier5216]

As a suggestion, I think if you use a tiny amount of wax, you can smoothe down the hairiness of the twine. It will maintain flexibility.

[@cenedra20]

I love that the wave is extended more than the wall, it makes it so realistic, but I would'nt have thought of that! Great job

I have to agree almost unanimously. Vindsvept's music is perfect for your channel. The Wizard Tower build is an amazing work of art. The hours you put into studying the surf is paying off. Your waves look so realistic and natural to the eye..

The music fits your theme wonderful.

[@gartsherriejunction4643]

Hi Neil. As per your question, "Make a comment if you like the music." I love the music, vocal or instrumental, as it is atmospheric. It is very Celtic in style and being from Scotland, it is a sound that is quite popular here. It is not dissimilar to music made by Enya oroducts Clannad. So it js a big thumbs up from me. Love your KZbin channel and the skill to produce some stunning diaoramas. Keep up the good work and, hopefully, you wll reach your goal of turning your hobby into a full-time career. Regards, Mike

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Hey thanks man. I really appreciate the kind words and for taking the time to write out such a thoughtful comment. Really means a lot to hear all of that and glad you enjoyed the music.

All the best to you and your precious family, my friend! xoxo

Thanks Heather! Sorry for the late response. I always want to make sure I have the time to properly respond to you.🙂 Glad you think that way about the board, although I see all the little mistakes and areas I wish I'd done differently.😋 I put silly words in the title like "ULTRA" as that seems to be what gets the views and attention. Although "ultra" to me is more like "not bad."😏 Anyway, thanks Heather for all the support you've given. You have a huge heart and the time you take to reach out to people and lift them up is VERY admirable and inspiring! Thanks again for all the awesome words. BTW your latest bench and fountain are CRAZY! Just popped over there to take a look at your latest vids and now going to sit down, have a coffee, give them a watch through and learn a think or two. That bench really jumped out at me as soon as I saw the thumbnail. Well done.🙂

[@colinbyerly5212]

Thank you this was the most challenging part of realistic challenges to produce historical events , that need to have realistic effects ! Keeping the display clean in large volume visitors and the use of lighting to the models with sound effects is also something that incorporating into and out of the model to add effects that produce greater effects as motion or depth that photographic effects can be used to display models , are some things of that I needed to help the massive amounts of scaled 12 inch military movable figures with specific scaled equipment ! This helps to save time in such projects thank you !

[@karstenvonfjellheim5321]

Fantastic work, this is exactly how I will make my sea boards in the future. Truly amazing! I really want a 8x6 table or larger seaboard(in parts), it will be a daunting task, and not cheap, but I have a feeling it will look just as good as yours-with practice. I think once upon a time in 2008 or before, there was an online store/wargaming community called "Cloud9"? They had an amazing sea diorama, with the water just rolling off smoothly, and a smooth vortex in the sea as well. Now I guess I get how they did it, like you did, on plastic sheets. But this is the internet, so I have to complain: No fish or schools of fish? Mermaids/Naga might be a bit much. Maybe next time?

[@RealTerrainHobbies]

Haha, agreed! Definitely will have to throw something into the water next time.😋 8x6! Wow that sounds awesome! A daunting and expensive task sure, but you can definitely pull it off! That would look incredible! hmm, I'll have to try and find this Cloud 9 diorama. Sounds interesting alright!

The music is absolutely fantastic . I listen to this sort of music while I'm writing or creating. it helps expand my inspiration and pushes my mind further in to what I'm seeing. Sort of like background music in a movie. even if no one else hears it while I'm writing it. I hope to have this sort of music playing in something that shows up for others to see and hear. and your water effect is amazing. I'm glad it showed up while I was watching others creating miniatures/dioramas. I've only made maybe two in my life time due to needing them for school. but I enjoyed making them and hope to make more someday when I have time.

Just a small note about the boards for the resin pour - to maintain the boards full length for future projects, just make sure that the first board has one end flush with the perpendicular side. Then, as you go around attaching the boards, each one will have a tail, but each corner will be tight.

@@RealTerrainHobbies I wanted a rock like form on my resin dome. But I didn't want to super glue rock on my resin dome. And I didn't want to use polymer clay either because I was afraid that it would eventually fall off. But using the snow flock coloring it and then mixing it with resin like how you did will do exactly what I need. Resin sticks to resin pretty well so hopefully I shouldn't have to worry about it falling off and when its fully set and cured it rock solid.
